Timelies all!

I'm sorry about Marcie.

Gary's stepmom died. She had been sick for a while, but it's still sad. She was a nice person.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I’m sorry to hear that, Sheryl

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, Sheryl, I'm so sorry. All possible comfort to you and Gary and everyone who loved her.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Good morning, Buffistae, and welcome to July 6th.

Matilda's room has been painted (and the popcorn scraped off the ceiling and the plaster repaired), and her furniture has been returned. Today the Wallpaper Lady comes to do the accent wall, and then that project will be done, except for all the ceiling hooks Matilda plans to put in.

Then Matilda will rejoin us from the garden apartment where I think she's been enjoying her privacy and turning up the heat in the bedroom.

Emmett & EM are almost done with their complete makeover of our old apartment. Kalena is excited to do the painting when she gets back from camp. Emmett's headed up on Saturday and he'll be gone for two weeks.

The only thing we have left to do there is reclaim one large bookcase which will go to live in the attic.

Sheryl, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Hugs and love to Matilda. I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry for your family's loss, Sheryl.

Hec, that is amazing progress.

-t, I mean... not ever? Like never, never?

Well, not in this specific case, anyway. Although it was my first reaction. YourWorkEmailMayVary

My condolences, Sheryl.
